What a great place! Clean, well maintained, nice people, excellent and fun views. We had a wonderful time! 2 things that could be improved, but WON'T affect my 5 star review. 1. The wifi was pretty bad. In and out, but out more than in! It was very windy, not sure if that makes a difference. Since they do not have cable, upgrading the wifi would be really good. 2. The dog "park" was quite small, but is in a pretty large, grassy area. Seems like increasing the size of it would be a pretty easy fix. Again, a really nice campground, highly recommend, and we plan to come back again too

Stayed here for a quick little birthday getaway with the family (site Q). Campground was very well kept and located near everything we needed - shady maple, cherry crest and green dragon. The overlook views were amazing, and Susan at the front desk was the best!! The only thing I think they could add to improve is a pool, but I also get the upkeep pools require as well so I won’t hold that against them. Highly recommend if you are looking for a clean, peaceful campground in the Lancaster area. We will be visiting again next fall for sure!

The sites were level and the views were great. Showers very clean and two dog parks which were uphill or downhill and the one that was uphill was not hard to get to. The one downhill was a good walk but a little steep for feeble legs. Some sites were uphill to pull into but not difficult. Love the area that this campground is located in. Be courteous with the Amish and their carts when driving through the area. This campground could be a five star but I have a hard time giving five stars to anything.

I have to say, this campground was pristine - the grounds are meticulously kept, the bathrooms were spotless, and the hilltop views overlooking the Amish countryside are captivating. I stayed in a patio area w/full hookups and the flowers, lighting, and patio furniture were thoughtfully placed creating a welcoming atmosphere. It was quiet, safe, and all the spots seemed pretty spacious. If you’ve never been to this part of PA I highly recommend it for serene views and an educational experience learning about the Amish culture. Take a tour of their farms or ride a buggy! A city girl like me really loved the experience. Awesome 1pm checkout time was appreciated!!! (Tip for WiFi: I did use my signal booster. I was staying towards the back of the campground and seemed to need it so I could work.)

I spent two nights here with my 18-foot travel trailer while visiting Lancaster County. The campground is nestled on the side of a hill, offering a breathtaking pastoral view of the farmland below. The grounds were meticulously maintained, with lush green grass. My campsite was a level gravel area nestled among the trees. While there weren’t many activities to engage in, the view was simply stunning. There weren’t many options for kids, but there was a nice playground. It’s worth noting that many people here had dogs, which is also quite common. The staff was friendly and helpful, making our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this campground for anyone visiting this beautiful area.
